If you've ever loved a dog, a cat, an old barn, or a place in the country, you will love CLOSE FRIENDS.
Meet UFO, the shy Brahman bull who mates only at night; and Tigger, the smartest farm cat ever. Meet Cooper, Peter Jenkin's forever friend, a half Alaskan Malamute dog; and Shocker, the black stallion Peter took to Inner Mongolia. You will also meet the remarkable people who live among animals and who love them as he does.
Of all the books Peter Jenkins has written, none is more heartfelt or moving than CLOSE FRIENDS.
"This book's fresh prose will capture your emotions from agony to zest." -- The Seattle Times
